Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 363
Capital, Han Jingchen watched Su Jingsong come in: "How did the house inquiry go?"
Su Jingsong walked over with a smile: "Today I really found a suitable one, once you’re done, we’ll go take a look together."
Han Jingchen listened and put down the file in his hand: "Can we finalize it today?"
Su Jingsong set down the thermos he was carrying: "If you’re satisfied with the house, we can finalize it today."
Han Jingchen smiled: "Alright, I’ll finish my work, and we’ll head out."
Su Jingsong nodded in agreement: "Just call me when you’re done."
Han Jingchen nodded and returned to his work. By the time he was ready to leave, Su Jingsong had already prepared the car.
It took them over half an hour to get to the location: "Just up ahead, the courtyard is not far from the school, only a ten-minute walk. Also, as per your request, the courtyard isn’t too big, so it won’t draw too much attention with miss living there alone."
Han Jingchen walked in and was quite pleased with the surroundings, which seemed nice with no big communal courtyards, just individual houses.
He actually had a courtyard here, but it was a large three-entry courtyard. It was too spacious for Yanyan to live alone, and it was relatively far from the school, taking about fifteen minutes by bike.
Upon reaching the courtyard gate, someone was already waiting there. After exchanging pleasantries, they entered the courtyard together.
There was a pomegranate tree by the front courtyard wall, with a magnolia tree planted slightly to the right in the middle of the courtyard. It’s a pity that you couldn’t see the intricately carved and fragrant magnolia flowers now, but the stone table and stools under the tree made the place feel pleasant and cozy.
Han Jingchen liked the courtyard at first glance. It wasn’t too big; the main house had three rooms, with two side rooms on each side, not much smaller than the main ones. What satisfied him the most was that there was a backyard, where the owner had built a toilet, eliminating the need to crowd a public bathroom.
The backyard had two small plots where they had planted some vegetables, well-kept and lush, looking delightful.
After seeing the courtyard, the house owner directly said: "You’ve seen the house, and the price is as I previously mentioned, non-negotiable. If it works, let’s complete the paperwork today; we’re eager to leave Beijing."
In the car, Han Jingchen had already heard from Su Jingsong about the situation; the couple was eager to go south to help their son with childcare, planning to live with him there, thus deciding to sell the house.
Han Jingchen felt his daughter would definitely like the house: "Alright, let’s get the paperwork done together then."
The house price wasn’t low, but it was well-maintained and exquisitely charming. Both parties were straightforward, and the paperwork was completed quickly.
The house was directly named under Han Xinyan, a gift from Han Jingchen for his daughter’s college admission.
The original owner had already handled all the furniture in the house, and after completing the housing procedures, Han Jingchen asked Su Jingsong to hire renovation workers to refurbish and arrange the house according to his requirements.
Xinyan was unaware of all this; it was a surprise prepared by Han Jingchen for her.
Meanwhile, He Jinxuan was busy making phone calls: "Buddy, I’ll have to count on you for this thing; I’ll treat you to drinks later."
He heard the person on the other end say: "What’s our relationship, don’t be so polite with me, I’ll make sure it’s properly done for you."
After hanging up the phone, he walked out of the office with a smile.
As soon as he left, colleagues in the large office outside started discussing enthusiastically: "Our section chief is refreshing with joy; he’s even walking with a spring in his step."
"Indeed, with his partner getting into such a good college, many are envious."
"That’s something others can’t envy, only our section chief has such good fortune. You all heard, right? His bonus alone is worth several years of our salary, it’s like he’s a lucky mascot."
"Those gossipy ladies who used to make fun of our section chief won’t have anything to say now."
At this point, someone spoke up softly: "But Han Xinyan isn’t someone from our factory. Once she leaves, what if she doesn’t come back? What will our section chief do?"
